From a Doughnut perspective, every country - whether rich or poor - is a 'developing country', with social shortfall &/or ecological overshoot. Turning this around is our generational challenge. How's your country doing? Find out at this fantastic website goodlife.leeds.ac.uk

Solstice helps people tap into community solar, which means you don't have to worry about installing anything on your rooftop. You can buy a portion of a neighbourhood shared solar farm and switch to solar that way. #RenewableEnergy solstice.us

Churches, schools, community centers and libraries hold values – and have actual physical space – that supports sharing. Develop sharing programs inside these strongholds and work outwards. #MutualAid #Coops #SharingEconomy shareable.net

I was once asked on TV whether I support a maximum wage (where incomes in excess of a set multiple of the minimum wage face a 100% tax). I demurred, fearing a trap. I wish I hadn't. I'm now convinced that such a policy is essential to creating a fairer, more ecological economy.

@pmfxoxo It seems he does. I think he said he was going to work on forwarding his ideas including basic income.

This is a great thread outlining the key ideas put forward by Dutch academics for a #degrowth future

Jason Hickel @jasonhickel

This is remarkable: 170 Dutch academics put together a 5-point manifesto for economic change after the C19 crisis, building on #degrowth principles. It has gone viral in Dutch media. In this thread I'll summarize the points in English. trouw.nl/duurzaamheid-n…
